Can't get over the fact how bad this game is. I know it's just a game idea but still. The computers not bidding against another is stupid but managable. However every time I seemingly got the upper hand on the computer with owning more valuable land (which I had to make an investment for) thw game rolls on the bank 2-3 times and the computer wins the game for for absolutely doing nothing. This game is 0 strategy and 100% rng. Maybe fixable if you could upgrade your plot without landing on it during your turn.

This game is a great example of the trope "The computer is a cheating bastard", as the AI is extremly rigged to help the computer.

the reason why monopoly is better than this game is because rolling the dice takes 0.3 seconds, constituting less than 5% of game play, whereas the spinning dial in this game takes 7 seconds and 50% of gameplay. 50% of this game is waiting for the godamn dial to stop spinning. it would have been a good game otherwise

yeh i like this game, its got a couple of annoyances to itlike the cpu's failing to bid against each other, and i dislike they way the bank can unbankrupt the cpu too, however, i see these features as making the game a bit harder...you definitely need to buy tactically to win on the last map. could certainly be developed more but is a really good idea.

I knocked player 1 out of the game. Got player 2 to bid high for a connected property for theirs. Landed on a connected property to mine, and had to bid against a fresh player 1 with 60 coins. Complete junk.

Honestly, it's a very good game concept. It's like a peared down monopoly with a lot of the tedium thrown out. Other than the obvious "feature" of the AI refusing to bid against eachother after the player folds, this is vastly superior to monopoly imo. The fact that there is no mortgaging adds a level of strategy to holding on to money instead of upgrading, and I really appreciate that properties become neutral again after a player drops out, so no one gets an unfair advantage from just one unlucky die roll (like in monopoly, again, where a player who has been sapped the whole game by player 1 can land on a single player 2 property and all their resources go to player 2, imbalancing an otherwise fair game). I think with some love and attention this could be very good. I might make a spinner and play irl with some friends, because it's not too difficult to fabricate with some poker chips and whatnot.

nice idea, really bad execution. But that is normal with E_chas games, they start at the bottom at work their way upwards from there.... might check back in a while to see how this one turn out.

SirFred, I don't know why you're getting downvoted... you're absolutely right! Every game is 2v1 which makes it extremely frustrating to play. Awesome concept though!

=4)building come with some empty rooms. we can upgrade them.
+5)nice beginning. waiting for more content... thanks.

If player folds the auction automatically ends, even if the CPU should bid against each other on it. This is a massive problem for gameplay.
